The day started off real good, it was kinda cold but we toughed it out to enjoy one last ride to Mt. Fuji before it gets really cold over here.

Our Japanese friend on the K6 was leading the way, the busa was second and the 750 was third, I was trailing due to it was my first time on the road along with my boy on the 750. We were in a deep right turn and next thing I know I see my boy get thrown in the bushes and his bike flipping in the air with pieces flying everywhere. Were still trying to figure out what happen. He suffered a severly bruised right shoulder, but he lives to ride another day!!!

Actually that's whats weird, the right side showed no signs of him sliding off the road, the frame slider is perfect. All the damage to the right is from the landing. Up in the mountains, all the roads over here have a open drain for the rain, he ran into that thus causing the highside which is what threw him. The doc said he should be back to normal in about 3 weeks!!!
